Lamp life in service will be affected by a number of parameters, such as mains voltage deviations, switching cycle, luminaire design and control gear.

Turn lamp off at least once for 15 minutes per week. FAILURE TO COMPLY INCREASES THE RISK OF RUPTURE. Do not use beyond rated life. The lamp must be fully enclosed by a luminaire to ensure the retention of any fragments in the event of such failure with the exception of lamps which are rated for open fixtures such as: MPR 400/C/VBU/0/40 (27738). Electrical data Data is based on a nominal lamp operating from an ANSI reference ballast according to C78.43 with power factor correction. Volts [V] Current [A] Maximum Current Crest Factor 175 132 1.5 1.8 250 133 2.1 1.8 400 V135/H133* 3.2 1.8 00 V263/H255* V4.1/H4.2* 1.8 *V=VBU and H=HOR Hot re-strike time All ratings re-strike within minutes following a short interruption in the supply. Actual re-strike time is determined by ignitor type, pulse voltage and cooling rate of the lamp. Run-up characteristics Time for light output to reach 9 of the final value is determined by actual supply voltage and ballast design. Typical values are: Percentage of final value 120 1 0 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 0 Typical run-up characteristics 0 2 4 6 Time from switch-on (minutes) Lamp current Supply current Supply power Lamp power Lamp Volt age Light output Supply voltage Lamps are suitable for supplies in the range described in the ballast manufacturer s datasheet. Supplies outside this range require a transformer (conventional, high reactance or CWA) to ensure correct lamp operation. Lamps start and operate at 1 below the rated supply voltage when the correct control gear is used. However, in order to maximise lamp survival, lumen maintenance and colour uniformity the actual supply voltage and ballast design voltage should be within ±3%. Supply variation of ±5% is permissible for short periods only. Matching of multi-tapped ballasts to actual supply voltage may be achieved by measuring mean supply voltage at the installation and selecting the appropriate ballast setting/tapping. Control gear Lamps of this type are designed to operate on control gear specified in ANSI standard C78-43. It is essential to use a ballast appropriate to the supply voltage at the luminaire. Ballast and luminaire thermal testing should be undertaken to ensure the ballast is not overloaded under lamp operating conditions approaching rated life. For typical wiring diagrams for control circuits refer to actual ballast and ignitor manufacturer s data for terminal identification and wiring information. To maintain optimum system performance and minimise risk of ballast thermal overload, lamps should not be operated past rated life. 4
Fusing of circuits A number of factors need to be taken into account when selecting the rating and characteristic of the supply line fuse/mcb: (a) At the instant the circuit is switched-on, PFC capacitor current can be many times the steady state value for a very short period (few hundred microseconds). (b) For a short period (few seconds) after switch-on all discharge lamps may act as a partial rectifier and as a result the ballast can allow several times the normal supply current to flow. (c) During the lamp run-up period supply current is higher than normal (see graph). To avoid nuisance fuse failure/tripping of the MCB, ratings need to allow for all these factors. Individual lamp circuits should be fused using the single circuit value in the table. For multiple lamp installations, ratings in the table apply to main distribution line fuses supplying several lamp circuits.

PFC capacitors for ballasts Power Factor Correction is advisable in order to minimise supply current and energy costs. Power Factor Correction capacitor values and ratings are dependent upon the type of ballast and supply voltage used. Follow the ballast manufacturer s recommendations. 5
Warning Risk of electric shock Turn power off before inspection, installation or removal Do not use lamp directly exposed to water or outdoors without an enclosed fixture Risk of fire Keep combustible materials away from lamp Use in fixture rated for this product A damaged lamp emits UV radiation which may cause eye/skin injury Turn power off if glass bulb is broken Remove and dispose of lamp Unexpected lamp rupture may cause injury, fire, or property damage Turn lamp off at least once for 15 minutes per week - FAILURE TO COMPLY INCREASES THE RISK OF RUPTURE Do not use beyond rated life Beyond rated life, light output diminishes while energy consumption and risk of lamp rupture increases Do not use lamp if outer glass is scratched or broken Do not use lamp where directly exposed to water or outdoors without an enclosed fixture Lamps with E-rated ANSI codes must be operated in enclosed fixtures - See Instructions Do not store flammable materials near/below S-rated lamp in open fixture Use only properly rated ballast Do not exceed rated voltage Do not turn on lamp until fully installed Operate lamp only in specified position If used on a dimming system, see instructions Caution Risk of burn Allow lamp to cool before handling Do not turn on lamp until fully installed Lamp may shatter and cause injury if broken Wear safety glasses and gloves when handling lamp Do not use lamp if outer glass is scratched or broken Dispose of lamp in a closed container Do not use excessive force when installing. Rwarning This lamp can cause serious skin burn and eye inflammation from shortwave ultraviolet radiation if outer envelope of the lamp is broken or punctured. Do not use where people will remain for more than a few minutes unless adequate shielding or other safety precautions are used. Lamps that will automatically extinguish when the outer envelope is broken or punctured are commercially available.
